Default Summer Dragon 2016 Drives

This thread is for the Drives that will be available for the Summer Dragon 2016.

I'll add them as they are posted (or PM me with the details). I have a couple of routes that I can pass along if you want to lead a drive. Would strongly suggest drive leaders have a co-pilot to read the maps/routes to keep from getting lost, plus have a FRS radio!

Sign up for the drives you want to be part of, or lead. Please pay attention to the maximum number of cars allowed. If not signed up for a drive, please do not just show up and expect to tag along (sorry for being a pain in the a*s about this!), if groups get too big, it ruins the drive for everyone.

I agree! Anything above 10 cars is just unmanageable.

Hello Mike,
Sign me and S2K Dude (Dave Kosiba ) up for the Friday drive in your group (2 cars). We'll be heading up from Atlanta on Friday morning and meet up with you guys for lunch at Bowery.


Please add Dave and myself to Aaron's Saturday drive (2 cars)

Thanks

Joerg
